On this episode of Talking Shop I am joined by Zipline CEO and co-founder Melissa Wong. We discuss how Melissa’s 10 years’ of frontline experience informed her approach to building a SaaS company, the recurring operational frustrations that most head offices still underestimate, and why she believes technology should be designed with the store associate as the primary user. We also explore current trends in store execution and how retailers can bridge the gap between corporate strategy and the shop floor.

Prada has announced that its net revenues for the six months ended 30 June were €2.23bn (£1.92bn), up 22% compared with the same period last year.

Alongside this the company posted an EBIT of €491m (£421m), an increase of 22% from the €304m (£261m) it posted last year.

The company’s retail sales were up 21.1% compared with the first half of 2022, at constant exchange rates.

This meant that the net income for the group was €305m (£262m) up from €189m (£162m) in the previous year.

Prada stated that all regions except the Americas showed double-digit growth over the first half of 2023.

At constant exchange rates Japan grew 49.2%, Asia Pacific was up 25.3%, Europe was up 24.2%, the Middle East 13.5% but the Americas was down 1%.

The group “retains the ambition” to deliver solid, sustainable and above-market growth for the full-year.

This is considering a more challenging basis of comparison in the third quarter, and a fourth quarter 2022 that was again impacted by new Covid restrictions in Asia.
